Robot platform teaches engaging activities throughout the school year

Stocked by Mouser, the Parallax Scribbler S3 Robot is easy to use, can be set up in minutes and features the P8X32A onboard processor. The S3 can be used to provide a platform to teach engaging activities throughout the school year. Use the robot to teach or learn programming, robotics, math and art. The BlocklyProp online tool is the robot's primary programming environment. The robot features interlocking blocks with readable text for beginners to build programs in an intuitive, visually logical way. The BlocklyProp tool exposes the device's encoders for control over distance and speed for all possible types of movement. Pre-made blocks support all of the robot's sensors and motors. In addition, blocks are included for select accessories that plug into the robot's Hacker Port.
